The Watering Hole; Friday September 18 2015; “O wad some Power the giftie gie us . . .”

No verbosity today, just a handful of links to what could easily be grouped into a collective website named insanity.com, or something similar if that name’s already taken. So here they are, eight of the week’s Nutcasearrhea highlights (not counting the R-Debate):

That stuff is so completely nutso that I feel obligated to toss in some evidences of calm sanity — concepts NOT based on the Republican / Fundamentalist-Christer mantra of hate, fear, war, and greed, some more peaceful images of the real world, that vast arena “out there” that the insane among us have completely dismissed and abandoned. Like this first one — a fly on a wildflower.

Or how about a pair of unidentified bugs attending to their daily wildflower duties:

And this, a pair of itty-bitty flies hanging onto what will likely prove to be the Last (yellow) Rose of Summer:

And finally this one. A goose doing something not even Donald Trump can manage — taking an afternoon snooze while standing on one leg on a mostly submerged rock a hundred yards offshore!

I’d sure like to see most any one of the nutcases cited above try that!

There you have it, proof positive that wildflowers, flies, bugs, roses, geese, and even submerged rocks “out there” are superior in virtually every way to those insanity-driven human hordes “in here” that have come to haunt the planet!

Ben Gleckk may have something there. When TrumpDuck splits the reichwingFauxNuze vote and either Clinton or Sanders wins the Presidency, the loonies will finally explode in frustration and shooting, looting and rebellion will raise it’s ugly head. For a week.

Following Nugent’s link, he makes one very crazy and one very salient point.
A: We cannot believe so many in the GOP act like we are facing a minor inconvenience instead of the life-threatening dynamic of the Democrat communist battle cry. And face the facts – liberalism, progressivism and the mantra of the left are pure, nasty, proven communism, lick for lick.

B: Tell us, Mr. Trump, exactly how you are going to make America great again. We pray that you will. We pray that you can. We are waiting

Yeah TrumpDuck, how are you going to get Mexico to pay 300+billion dollars to pay for exporting mostly non-Mexican undocumented workers back to Mexico. Wait…

While everyone was excited for the imposition of martial law and FEMA camps, the military training exercise Jade Helm 15 ended on Tuesday without any of the wild predictions championed by the far-right coming true.

It was quite a letdown: No “round-up of patriotic men,” no exploitation of a system of secret tunnels and closed Walmart stores, no nuclear electromagnetic pulse attack on Texas.

But maybe President Obama really was plotting to engineer such dastardly deeds, but was exposed by true heroes like Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Rep. Louie Gohmert who gave legitimacy Jade Helm 15 paranoia.

Now that Jade Helm 15 is over, the same politicians and pundits who used the military drill to promote baseless fears about the Obama administration will quickly find a new conspiracy theory to latch onto as the cycle endlessly repeats itself.

And, as long as we are declaring war on Christians, can we throw someone in a cell for this crap? If not, can we start to question the Pythagorean theorem? Squares and their roots make baby Jesus suck his thumb in wonder.

Students at Ahmed Mohamed’s Irving, Texas high school have rallied to support the Muslim teenager, after school officials and police had him arrested for bringing a home-made clock to school.

Since his arrest, students tweeted a school-wide plan to bring clocks to school today and tell the teachers it was in solidarity with their classmate.

MacArthur High School principal Daniel Cummings is still standing by the decision to racially profile the 14-year-old freshman, saying in a letter to parents: “While we do not have any threats to our school community, we want you to be aware that the Irving Police Department responded to a suspicious-looking item on campus yesterday. Please rest assured that we will always take necessary steps to keep our school as safe as possible.”

How about sending those clocks on in to city hall to that racist mayor, too? Johnny Fever told his listeners to dump garbage on the city hall steps…
